Review: Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix

Book: Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix

Genre: YA SF

Rating: A

For: Scholastic Book Fair Prepration

A new series by the author of the Shadow Children series, which I loved! This series is called The Missing with Found being the first one. The book opens with a mysterious plane arriving out of nowhere filled with babies. Thirteen years later, those babies, all who have been adopted and living normal lives, start getting really strange letters. The excitment escalates when our heroes start investigating things and asking questions and making phone calls. I can't tell you the whole premise of the story from there because it will give way too much away. But, I'm truly excited about this new series and will be a follower of all that comes later.

Wow, what a ride. When an invisible barrier suddenly descends on this small town, how will the people handle things? Let's just say... not very well! Would it be giving away too much if I say... pretty much EVERYONE dies! And all written in...
